[Epidemiologic data of uro-oncologic pathology in a urology service of a university general hospital. Comments regarding cancer of the prostate].
Data from 92, 93 and 94 tumoral records is analyzed based on the first visit system, staging at time of diagnosis, intervals between visits and management. After finding data unsatisfactory, a program for health care improvement is developed in order to secure diagnosis at earlier stages which may allow for curative radical treatment. The program was implemented in 1995. Results are communicated, and compared with those from previous years; the effectiveness of the program is verified.
